Identified with a guy who was psychotic and planned to murder his wife and child?
The original OP is right. This movie was a slap in the face to “paranoid” heterosexual white men.
I am amazed at how stupid people are. “Oh I love that movie.” It was making fun of conservatives and whites and not in a nice way.
Douglas and his old man are big libs. I hope he recovers but he has always been a BIG contributor to the DNC.
The guy didn't plan to murder his wife and child. He only wanted to see the girl for her birthday. It's a classic case of a man being bludgeoned by the system and fighting back. If he was intent on killing innocents, why did he have a water gun at the end of the movie, instead of the real thing?
The only ones hurt or killed were thugs (gang-bangers, neo-nazi). Otherwise it was inanimate objects being the object of his attacks.
